These boards are very quiet at the weekends.
On my BB over here the board is active all weekend with various discussions and idle chat.
At the moment we have got a 'prat' poster in fact I'll copy the thread below so you can guage a taste of the Brits at their worst. It is not a representative thread and IF YOU ARE EASILY OFFENDED READ NO FURTHER.

What this thread is about:

From: deal >> all
Lets get back to basics boys. I have never seen any off you give any
sensible suggestions on anything on the bb. All you lot do is come
out of the woodwork and stick your nose in where it don't belong. If
you don't like it go onto another thread and have a good moan there,
because your not welcome here.

P.S. Long live WHU and all he believes in (free speach)
UNQUOTE:
The posters deal has "never seen any off you give any sensible
suggestions on anything on the bb" include:
Aquila,
MartinC,
JonC,
Billy Liar,
Doc Proc,
Viking,
baffled.
I have seen useful contributions to the BB by these posters. I am
therefore doing exactly as "deal" suggests by going onto another
thread and having a good moan here.
In April last year at the launch of 2ESI, ESI took the initiative of
introducing personal posting identities as a result of BB sentiment to
stop mischievious posting.
With the exponential growth of this BB since its launch nearly three
years ago, we have been fortunate in getting comparatively few people
gaining access who have tried to abuse membership or disrupt the BB.
"deal" has kindly offered us the opportunity to complain about thread
N2301313, and in a spirit of co-operation and help to a fellow bb-er,
I am assisting him by launching this thread.
I do not expect much response here because I am thinking I am one of
the few last remaining "established" posters to ESI as some 400+ have
indicated they are looking at supporting ADVFN in future.
I submit the reason there are "defectors" is because - despite the
efforts of the self-appointed "Thread Police" - it is much easier in
time and effort trying to maintain standards in something one believes
in to make a fresh start and leave the refuse behind.
Does ESI want to support newbie posters on threads, like "deal" and
"whu", who tell the existing contributors: " If you don't like it go
onto another thread and have a good moan there, because your not
welcome here."
Not quite consistent with exchanging opinions about shares, is it?
And rather contradictory on the concept of free speech..........
Quote: "If you don't like it go onto another thread and have a good
moan there, because your not welcome here. DEAL P.S. Long live WHU
and all he believes in (free speach)" Unquote.
Why does "deal" and "whu" not set up their own BB? That way they
could prattle away to each other to their hearts' content.
I suggest because they seek attention and glamour from RUINING THE
REPUTATION OF THE QUALITY OF THIS BB instead.
And if nobody does anything about it, they will succeed.
In that sad event, I'll see you all on ADVFN where posts like "deal"
and "whu"'s above will probably take about 9 minutes to result in the
poster being kicked off the site. And even less if certain people
happen to be online at the time.
Note: From the Cambridge Six meeting, ESI said they do not have anyone
monitoring the postings on this site. Pity. But there you go.
It's up to you. You can try the "Ignore them and they will go away"
approach, but might that merely encourage an influx?
Personally, I prefer reading the contributions from Aquila, MartinC,
JonC, Billy Liar, Doc Proc, Viking, and baffled rather than those of
deal and whu.

As another "old boy of ESI" (over 2 years now), I agree with you too
AJB. I have got fed up with all the idiocy being posted these days,
and have been spending more time lurking than posting.
There was once a time when I would be posting on 10 threads a day, but
I don't have the patience or the inclination to join in the inane
arguments that seem to be appearing daily.
I hope that this will not be the end of the ESI bb. It would be sad to
have such a great asset, reduced to an argumentative chat thread, by a
few ill-informed, petty newbies.

Like many on this BB, I've been annoyed at the rantings of
"contributors" like deal and whu (or should they be referred to as
Sybil!). I have never taken the bait to responded to them in the
past, nor will I ever again in future, as it is my strong belief that
if they don't have an audience, then they'll simply sink back into the
primordial slim from which they came. However, in support of your

for me. I value some of the contributions here and have stayed around
but I'm not sure I've got the energy for much longer to sort through
everything else to take part in those.
Quote "Why does "deal" and "whu" not set up their own BB" Suspect
significance and/or competence issues are being worked through this
medium and needs input from the rest of us (even this thread will

I believe I am one of the more tolerant members of the BB. Even
sticking up for Torbriand on one mad moment. However I must say I do
not like to see anybody trying to claim that they have intellectual
superiority over anybody else.
He talks down to other members of the BB as if they were children. I
do not agree with anyone being thrown off after making a couple of bad
postings but in Deals case he has not learnt anything since he joined
the board and he is as condescending as ever.
My vote is thumbs down.

The postings of deal/whu have no place on what is supposed to be a

If ESI take no action, it will show that they have no respect for this

presumably draw our own conclusions and take whatever action we think

I am glad to see that you have both come back posting on the BB.
At Deal's request I reserved 2 places at the recent Soho Soho lunch
for you both but you did not turn up or cancel your reservations so
you both owe me œ32.
Have to say I was getting a bit worried that neither of you would
return to the BB again but great to see you both back.
Happy to take a cheque to add to the float that has already been
established by others who booked but could not notify me early enough
to cancel their reservations.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

From: Dreyfuss
I'm not convinced that banishment is the way to deal with ESI BB
miscreants. I think this BB should be truly open since a large part of
its strength is its diversity.
Last time whudeal (I also think they are one) kicked up a fuss, I
reacted appallingly but this was the first time I'd encountered
immature kids on the BB and had given no consideration as to how to
deal with them. In retrospect, one just has to ignore them and they'll
soon get bored. On this thread, whudeal are just acne.
If they get banished, they'll soon be back under some other identity.
Also, many us have made fools of ourselves in the past and this BB has
been wonderfully tolerant while we adjusted. Some of the young bucks
may have attitude but they also have useful contributions.
I've certainly taken serious affront at bb'ers in the past only to be
impressed by them later on.
Can you imagine this BB becoming a stuffy club? Urghh. I think it may
also be a good thing that the thread police have left since they were
trying to mould the BB in their own image (the previous year?s model)
rather than allowing it to develop.
I used to live on a little island in the Med: when people first
visited, they though it was fabulous and soon bought a farmhouse which
was lovingly renovated. However, within 5-years they would be moaning
about the development, the prices, the tourists and how it had been
generally spoilt. They would then leave only to be replaced by new
visitors who though it was fabulous... This cycle has been recurring
for 50-years and, yes, it?s still fabulous.
My plea is to keep ESI an open BB especially now that ADVFN offers a
closed board to those who need it (I think ADVFN?ers should declare
themselves on this thread). If you can?t stand whudeal, just ignore
it.

Good posting.
It is very difficult to achieve a balance between having an open BB
and one where individuality is frowned upon. At some point you MUST
eject a poster especially if he makes the daily life of the BB
intolerable.
Extreme profanity such as in a certain posting by the Count is frowned
upon and a certain thread by him was removed. Happily the Count
himself was not banned and he continues to make excellent
contributions.
With Whudeal you have a poster who intimidates other posters, this
cannot be allowed or we could easlily lose some of our newer members.
ESI is still is a very good BB and most of us can post our ideas
without any fear from the thread police.

In general the BB is fair, reasonable and responsible place to
discuss. I think that people are forgetting that ADVFN is only one in
a long string of BB's that have been set up outside of this one in
reaction to declining standards , taking the best posters with them.
If I had an arrogant, rhectorical S**T in my business I would eject
him / them without hesitation. It's obvious that they get off on
winding up people. I avoid any thread with these time wasters in them
but when they try to wind up the whole board I just have to let them
know.
Shame on ESI for not getting it right again. Time is running out for
them and you.

I agree with a great deal of what you say but I don't understand for
one moment why ADVFN'ers should declare themselves. Are they gaining
some illicit benefit by being on both boards to the detriment of other
members? Are they getting a free subscription to ESI at someone's
expense? Are they upsetting people by the fact they can post here and
there? Do Hemscotters have to declare also? Does anyone who reads the
Messages board for any stock in Yahoo US have to declare that? Do
people on ADVFN spend their whole time discussing "those left behind"
to tthe general detriment of "those left behind"
Whats the point??
Or is it just that the failure to gain admittance by a few people has
got right up their noses and instead of examining WHY the majority
excluded them they prefer to fling childish abuse back and forth?
p.s. I subscribe to both and a few other things as well.

Well that is just the way the quality of life slowly deteriorates,
without the next generation realising it, it just a steady journey
south for the whole human race, when I was young we had meadows full
of buttercups and daisies, streams with clean fresh water running
through and watercress you could collect for tea, primroses on the
banks.
Now what do we have? B****y great holes in the ground where they have
extracted ballast for the huge housing estates.Oh yes the holes have
filled up with water so the 'owners' can stock them up with fish and
charge œ500 per season to the ever so gratefull people who live in the
huge housing estates can enjoy the supposed country pursuits, but at
what a cost!
This is the trouble with life on this planet, it is deteriorating, but
the following generation doesn't see it!! There will be a time when
suddenly it will come home to future generations with a bang, in more
ways than one!

Hit a nerve!
Perhaps you're right and I'm just being petty and vindictive about a
BB (ADVFN) that seemed designed to rip the heart out of this BB (ESI)
and then lock a lot of people out (at least for the short-term).
I just felt that BB'ers who had ditched this ?open? BB for ?closed?
ADVFN should state their allegiances when laying into a BB they've
abandoned. If I'm being small-minded or OTT, I'm sorry.
> Or is it just that the failure to gain admittance by a few people

It's true I am curious to know why I was excluded from ADVFN. No-one
has told me and I have no idea unless taking Bullie with a pinch of
salt is reason enough. Being excluded has soured my feelings but then
would it not sour yours if you were excliuded and didn?t get an
explanation? Still, I don?t like this private club business just as I
didn?t like (or use) the closed BBs pre-ADVFN of which I had
membership for a while.

THE COUNT>>>DEAL & WHU
Interesting stuff you've posted on Nat West.
Just like the stuff, that you DEAL, posted on Shield and
Biocompatibles in your maiden posting a few months ago. Do you
remember it? Perhaps someone should do the honours and find the thread
and re - post it so that we can judge you on your words and not
emotionally.
I believe you were mega - bullish on about 4 stocks in the short term.
I remember the two I have mentioned because I know as much as anyone
on those companies.
Well, let's see how you have done!
Shield have done nothing in the short term (I'm still extremely
bullish, are you?) and now that BII has started to move, you have told
us in the same breath that you have more stock than me in BII
(extremely highly unlikely!), that you have been in it for longer than
me (I don't think so!) and that you also don't think the stock is
going any place (which if true, implies that you are an out and out
FRUITCAKE for holding a large amount of stock that you think is going
nowhere!).
Please answer my questions about BII going nowhere and I may just take
you a little more seriously. Believe me, I'd know by your reply if you
know what you are talking about.
As for letting Martini down like that, I think it was disgraceful and
indicates how seriously you take people on this BB, who in good faith,
have dipped into their own pockets to give people like you a good
time.
I was genuinely looking forward to meeting you at the BB lunch. I
rather mistakenly thought at the time that there may have been some
common ground between us.
As for meeting Martini, I would love to come along too as I still look
forward to meeting you face to face.

THE COUNT>>>CROCODILE
Actually Croc, I think I should put the record straight on that one
now that it has been brought up again.
As Martini pointed out at the time my posting was upsetting the
thought police of the time, I wasn't the only one to use a naughty
word in the heading. I simply got up most people's noses, probably
because I was more easily recognised. What happened to me was totally
unfair. When Martini pointed this out (and one other poster) it was
met with a deathly silence.
I was just a 'big boy' waiting to be shot down. I was asked via email
if i would give my permission for the thread to be withdrawn and I
agreed in the interests of not starting a war. It was too irrelevant
in the overall context of what a BB should be all about.
What left me upset though, was the fact that less people came out to
support me than the endless chain of people that supported the
reinstatement of TOBRIAND. I don't think there is much doubt that I
have given infinitely more helpful facts on the companies I commented
on than Toby ever did!

Wasn't "exclusion", if indeed that is what it was, something to do
with number of posts made on ESI. If you go to ADVFN site now there is
a column to register so it may be worth a try that way. I have no
doubt that if you are refused access and ask why, someone at ADVFN
will tell you the reason. they seem perfectly normal people to me.
I think all this talk of Bullshare being some kind of Pied Piper has
got well out of hand and is something of an insult to the intelligence
of the rest of us. He had an idea, followed it through and many people
thought his idea was something of value to them, so used it. I think
one B Gates did something similar but I don't see any calls out for us
to stop using windows:) A lot of people are still posting here as well
as there and a lot of the posts are duplicated. There is no "cabal" of
investors with inside information all making money whilst not telling
anyone else the good news. Or if there is I too am excluded. And no I
am not losing any sleep over it.

Another tip for Mon (Let's kiss and make up) :-
Buy the FTSE - should see over 100 points. Interest rate news will
most certainly be positive from over the pond.
I have some more info. about a certain telco. company possibly bidding
for a UK telco. in the next couple of weeks - the bid has been put
together over the past 3 months and wasn't due to go through until the
'fall' but with the recent sharp drop in UK telco. shares it has been
brought forward (I personally know people that have been working 24
hrs. 7 days a week putting together the 'finishing touches'). The
decision to make the bid next week is balanced on a knife-edge and
could still be put off until the 'fall'. I am getting regular updates
(twice hourly - even today !) from friends.
It will be illegal for me to give you the 'exact' details - so over
the next few days I will try and 'slip' a few clues so that you can
hopefully all jump on board. The first titbit :- this deal will
represent one of the biggest takeovers of the year...more to follow
later...

Having read the archives on this BB regarding the COUNT my opinions
are that he is a self centered Prig with no regard or thought for
others.
Probably a spoilt brat as a child, and this reflects, in these his
Autumn years and indeed his outlook on life in general.
He drives down a one way street and ignores the 'No Entry' sign.
For those supporters of the afore mentioned kindly do not refer to his
'excellent and informative' postings on Bio-tech, Hi-Tech and
Standard companies..I have read them...
He is too ignorant to see 'the other side of the coin' and ignores
valid arguments...unless he has support from Mummy.
Always a busy fellow, off for some meeting with someone of importance
from one of his many business interests..
Yet the same COUNT is the one that upon entering an Hotel for a bar
lunch heads straight for the Gents..
Now then readers the above is a personal opinion and in no way can it
be legally considered deformation of character.
What I have said is my democratic right, and this right should be
used.
Failure not to do so would lead you all into a Dark Abyss where you

Of course not. They would have been battered so many times even their

No, all that it is about is reasonably civilised behaviour and mutual
respect for other posters.
It is not a slippery slope into some dark abyss but it is the path to

We all have democratic rights and are free to use them on this BB but

Just like you have the right to give your stupid comments about how we
behave in real life...we have exactly the same rights to say what we
feel...are you some sort of stupid pillock, or what ??? - did you ever
attend school or was you too busy smoking pot behind the bike
shed...or maybe kissing other little boys, maybe ? (no offence KNEKTD)
- I'm sure I'll get another lot of 'abuse' about these comments - and
I'm sure you will get away with your load of BULLSHIT - but that's
democracy BB style !!! - WELL LISTEN UP TOSSER - WE ARE HERE TO CHANGE
THIS BIG TIME - NO MORE 'COSY COSY' BB DEMOCRACY - REAL DEMOCRACY FOR
A REAL BB IN A REAL WORLD...That means you get to 'publish' all the
BULLSHIT you like...I bet that makes you a very happy little boy.

And here I was thinking it would be a boring weekend.
One thing about ESI has over The Dark side is that the fights are so
much more delicious here - hardly is heard a disparaging word there.
Well Deal thanks for your kind offer to pay up for the Soho Soho do I
will be in London on Tuesday and can meet you there 11:00 - 12:30 or
15:30 -17:00. Near Portland Square would be best for me.
Head back below parapets..

Oh well. If we're going to have a bash-up, remember while there may be
no rules (on this BB), you are gladiators in a modern day coliseum so
put on a good fight for the audience (no cheap insults, try and be
imaginative) and keep it off other threads or we might have a riot.
Looking forward to the Count's appearance, sabre in hand. God help us
if KNEKTD loses his/her cool.
ADVFN'ers welcome if they need exercise.
Off to my front-row seat. This time I'm not going to get riled just
enjoy the show.
Anybody care to keep a book?

I'm not sure that you understand what the word abuse means.
As for getting away with it, I didn't, you responded.
If I did post stupid comments above which I would dispute they are
certainly less stupid than your comments made at 17.56. (Thats when
the big hand points almost to the top and and the little hand ponts to
the bottom(oo'er thats a rude word mumsy))
Will there be any room for discussions on stocks in your brave new
world or will it just be a forum for insulting other posters?

Let them rant and rave,you can always ignore them.I will keep a close
eye on their telecom tip however.They say that it will be the
"biggest" takeover this year---big clue.My son is a manager in the
"biggest" and he has informed me that he would not be at all
suprised.

I don't think that a takeover in the telecoms sector would surprise
anyone.

Nicely honed insult. No blasphemies or direct personal comments. Good
follow through and style. |
